An Appeal to all the Sri Vaishnava Philanthropists on

behalf of SRI KETHANDAPATTI SWAMI KAINKARYA COMMITTEE

 

Dear all,

 

Dasasya vinnappam

 

Sri Andikaattu Swami

 

- born at Andikkaadu in Vangeepuram Vajapeyam vamsam

about 250 years ago. He was a sishya to Sri Vazhuttur

Swami and took sanyas at the age of 36 and was known

as Chinna Vedantaramanuja Mahadesikan. Spent his last

years at Tiruvaheendirapuram and attained the eternal

bliss at the lotus feet of Sri Devanathan. Sri

Kethandapatti Swami and Kozhiyalam Swami were some of

his well known disciples.

 

Sri Tiruvaheendirapuram Swami (aka) Sri

Srinivasaramanuja Mahadesikan (1808 to 1894)

 

He was born in the Chetlur vamsam and took sanyas at

the hands of Sri Kethandapatti Swami. Spent most of

his life in Tiruvaheendirapuram and attained the

eternal bliss at the lotus feet of Sri Devanathan.

Some of his well known disciples were - Garudapuram

Swami, Chetlur Narasimhachariar, Navaneetham

Krishnamachariar and Aadoor Tirumalai Ecchampadi

Desikachariar.

 

The Brindavanams of both these Swamis exist in

Tiruvaheendirapuram but are in dilapidated condition.

Hence a group of Sishyas of these Swamis' lineage has

taken up the task of renovating the Brindavanams and

celebrate their Tirunakshatrams at the Brindavanams.

 

It is my fervent appeal to all the Sri Vaishnava

philanthropists to donate their mite in cash and kind

and help in this noble cause.

 

A detailed report about this has appeared in June 2005

issue of HAYAGREEVA KRIPA journal.

 

Those who are desirous of contributing may please send

in their cheques/DDs in the name of

 

" SRI KETHANDAPATTI SWAMI KAIKARYA COMMITTEE "

 

and send them to

 

Sripadam P.Babu, Car Street, Tiruvaheendirapuram - 607

401 Tamil Nadu

 

Tel No: 04142-287 171

 

With humble pranams
